Effect of hinokitiol impregnated sheets on shelf life and quality of “KEK‐1” tomatoes during storage

Hinokitiol (β‐thujaplicin, volatile oil extracted from the wood of Hiba arborvitae [Thujopsis dolabrata var. hondae], cypress family) is a natural preservative, antimicrobial, and chelating agent, used to prevent decay and extend the shelf life of fruits and vegetables. In the present study, we used nonwoven rayon sheets impregnated with hinokitiol to conduct packaging studies. Mature green tomatoes var. “KEK‐1” were packaged under three packaging conditions, ie, modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), MAP + hinokitiol (MH), and perforated film package (as control), and their quality attributes were compared during storage. The packaging materials used were low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) film (40 μm) and fresh sheets of nonwoven rayon impregnated with hinokitiol. O₂ in the MAP packaged tomatoes were retained throughout the storage period (3% to 5% O₂). Results showed that MH had slightly improved quality attributes throughout the storage period when compared with MAP alone. Expression levels of LeACS, LeADH, and LeTBG4 genes were higher in 5 and 9 days of control when compared with MAP and MH. “KEK‐1” tomatoes had longer shelf life under MAP and MH packaging and maintained the quality at 15°C. Hence, the effect of the MAP with bioactive packaging treatments could be effective in the future application for the extension of shelf life and quality of fruits and vegetables.     

Effectiveness of modified atmosphere packaging in preserving a prepared ready‐to‐eat food

The effectiveness of modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) was evaluated for a combination prepared food (Korean braised green peppers with dry anchovies). From a preliminary storage test of the ready‐to‐eat dish at 10°C, the aerobic bacterial count on the green peppers was selected as a primary quality index. The effect of MAP with different CO₂ concentrations on the product quality at 10°C was also studied. MAP with a CO₂ concentration of ≥30% extended the lag time and/or reduced the growth rate of bacteria. Finally, the effect of different storage temperatures (5, 10, 15 or 20°C) on the shelf life of the product was investigated. Mathematical modelling of bacterial growth curves under stretch‐wrap air packaging and MAP with 60% CO₂/40% N₂ showed that MAP increased the hypothetical minimum temperature in the square root model that describes the temperature dependence of the lag time and growth rate. MAP conditions of 60% CO₂/40% N₂ extended the shelf life at 10°C by 130% (to 18.4 days) relative to that achieved with stretch‐wrap air packaging (7.9 days) based on the time taken to reach the quality limit of an aerobic bacterial count of 10⁵ CFU/g. The relative extension of shelf life achieved with MAP was greater at lower temperatures. Copyright © 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Prediction of plastic film thickness based on gas permeability and validation with ‘Kyoho’ table grapes for optimal modified atmosphere packaging

Modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) storage has become a useful technique for extending the shelf life of fruit and vegetables. However, the success of MAP depends on many factors, including types of fresh products, storage conditions, and the characteristics of the packaging films. To achieve the optimal gas composition in the package headspace and improve the postharvest quality of fresh produce, the packaging film with appropriate barrier properties needs to be selected. This study aimed to predict the film thickness by applying produce respiration rate and package film permeability data measured in given product weight and storage conditions. An available film (eg, 25‐μm‐thick low‐density polyethylene) was used to pack fresh produce, and the respiration rate of fresh produce and in‐package O₂ and CO₂ concentrations at steady state were measured. Permeability of the film was calculated based on mass balance, and the thickness of the film could be predicted if the recommended target O₂ and CO₂ concentration was obtained from the literature. To validate the predicted thickness value, an experiment was conducted by packaging fresh table grapes in bags of the predicted thickness. The effect of packaging with different film thicknesses on the quality of the fruit was determined. The results showed good agreement between the predicted and the experimental in‐bag O₂ and CO₂ concentrations, and the MAP with predicted thickness (90 μm) film was more effective in maintaining postharvest quality of grapes during low‐temperature storage than the thinner films (30 and 60 μm) and the control.     

低压静电场结合包装对采后樱桃番茄品质的影响

目的 研究常温环境下低压静电场(Low Voltage Electrostatic Filed,LVEF)结合不同商业包装处理对樱桃番茄果实贮藏品质的影响,探索基于LVEF处理的樱桃番茄采后常温货架期间适宜的商业包装方式。方法 待测樱桃番茄随机分为LVEF处理组、LVEF+PP组、LVEF+PET组和无任何处理的对照组,在温度为(23±1)℃和相对湿度为75%的同一培养箱中储存16 d,LVEF处理在整个储存期内持续进行,定期测定樱桃番茄在贮藏期间的品质变化。结果 LVEF处理能抑制质量损失率和丙二醛含量的上升,同时减缓亮度、硬度、可溶性固形物、可滴定酸、抗坏血酸和番茄红素含量的下降。在LVEF贮藏环境下,PET包装在采后樱桃番茄的质量、硬度、色度、可溶性固形物和抗坏血酸等质量指标方面优于PP包装和未包装的樱桃番茄。结论 LVEF处理对采后樱桃番茄有一定保鲜效果,且在LVEF贮藏环境下,PET包装樱桃番茄比PP包装的保鲜效果更好。     

Effects of Packaging Liners on Cooling Rate and Quality Attributes of Table Grape (cv. Regal Seedless)

Table grapes are commonly packed in multi‐layered packages consisting of cardboard carton, plastic liners and carry bag/pouch to maintain product quality along the cold chain. Each liner is characterized by the number and the size of perforations, which influence the environmental conditions around the produce inside the package. This study investigated the effects of different carton liners on the cooling rate and quality attributes of ‘Regal Seedless’ table grapes. Fruit quality attributes measured include weight loss, stem dehydration and browning, SO₂ injury, decay, berry firmness and colour. Non‐perforated liners maintained relative humidity (RH) close to 100% during cold storage and during a 7 day shelf life period, which resulted in delaying the loss of stem quality but significantly (p ≤ 0.05) increasing the incidence of SO₂ injury and berry drop during storage, as compared with perforated liners. Perforated liners improved fruit cooling rates but significantly (p ≤ 0.05) reduced RH. Low RH in perforated liners resulted in significant (p ≤ 0.05) increase in stem dehydration and browning as compared with non‐perforated liners. Berry firmness decreased by 78% after 42 days of storage at ?0.5°C. Significant (p ≤ 0.05) differences in berry firmness between the different packages were observed only during the first 7 days of storage. Berry colour changed from greenish‐yellow to yellowish‐green in all types of plastic liner during the storage period. Fruit decay occurred in all packages after a 7 day shelf life, with the highest incidence of decay occurring in liners with less perforation. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Shelf life extension of fresh asparagus using modified atmosphere packaging and vacuum skin packaging in microwavable tray systems

Asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.) is one of the most popular vegetables because it contains a wealth of fiber and several essential nutrients. It is a very perishable commodity due to its very high respiration rate. To maintain product quality and to satisfy consumer demand as a convenient food, modified atmosphere packaging (MAP), vacuum skin packaging (VSP), and microwaveable containers were used to extend the shelf life of fresh-cut asparagus as a ready-to-eat food product. The objective of this study was to determine the shelf life of fresh-cut asparagus packed in MAP and VSP microwaveable tray systems at commercial storage conditions, 4°C, 80% RH. Weight loss, moisture content, O₂/CO₂ concentration in the package headspace, product pH, microbial growth, and sensory evaluation were used to determine the product quality and shelf life. Moreover, the preference of product appearance and the quality of the cooked asparagus in both microwaveable tray systems at different cooking times and microwave power levels was also sensorially evaluated. During storage for 21 days, there was no significant difference (p > 0.05) in weight loss, moisture content, and pH. Sanitation and packaging techniques also helped to retard the microbial growth. Both techniques, combined with refrigeration, help to maintain the freshness and product shelf life up to 21 days for MAP and 18 days for VSP. On the basis of hedonic scale results, consumers preferred the appearance of both packaging types. Both microwavable tray systems, thus, can help to prolong the shelf life of fresh-cut asparagus and can be eaten directly from the package.     

Effects of active modified atmosphere on lipid and protein oxidation,moisture migration and quality properties of beef steaks

Fresh beef is a typically perishable food because of its high water and protein content; thus, it requires proper packaging condition and storage temperature to ensure its quality. In this study, the beef steaks were stored at 4°C under HiO₂ modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) (78.8% O₂ + 18.8% CO₂ + 2.4% N₂) and HiCO₂ MAP (60.0% CO₂ + 40.0% N₂). The traditional air packaging (AP) and vacuum packaging (VP) were used as the controls. The total viable count (TVC), colour, water holding capacity (WHC), myofibrillar protein (MP) oxidation and lipid oxidation of beef meat were investigated. The moisture distribution and migration were also analysed using the low-field nuclear magnetic resonance (LF-NMR). The association amongst all parameters was analysed by correlation analysis and principal component analysis (PCA). The results showed that the TVC values in the HiCO₂ MAP (5.6 log CFU/g) steaks were lower than those of VP (5.9 log CFU/g), AP (7.0 log CFU/g) and HiO₂ MAP (6.3 log CFU/g) steaks because of the sufficient CO₂ after 15 days of chilled storage. The bright red colour and the higher WHC were maintained in the HiO₂ MAP steaks than in the AP group during storage. However, higher levels of protein and lipid oxidation also occurred. The beef steaks stored under HiCO₂ MAP had the lowest protein and lipid oxidation and highest value of immobile water content and WHC, however, similar to the VP group, the bright red colour was not shown. The moisture attributes (drip loss, cooking loss and P₂₃), protein oxidation (protein solubility and carbonyl content) and lipid oxidation (TBARS value) have shown a close correlation by correlation analysis and PCA. Overall, two different packaging methods of MAP can prolong microbial-shelf life and maintain higher WHC of beef steaks compared to AP and VP steaks, but higher oxidation level in HiO₂ MAP and unattractive colour in HiCO₂ MAP are concerns that need to be addressed.     

Effect of packaging materials and storage conditions on bacterial growth,off‐odour,pH and colour in chicken breast fillets

A comparison was made of the effect of different packaging materials on bacterial growth, off‐odour, pH and colour of chicken breast fillets stored at 4°C. For one of the packaging materials, the effects of temperature (4°C and 8°C) and initial oxygen present (0%, 2% and 4%) on bacterial growth, off‐odour, pH and colour in chicken breast fillets were also evaluated. Chicken breast fillets stored in the packaging material with the highest oxygen transmission rate (OTR) measured at actual storage conditions had the highest bacterial growth and the highest degree of off‐odour. Chicken breast fillets stored in packaging material mainly consisting of expanded PET had similar bacterial growth and off‐odour as in the barrier display film (BDF) packages, despite a smaller headspace volume and lower initial concentration of CO₂. No differences in discoloration and pH of the chicken breast fillets, due to storage temperature and amount of initial oxygen present, were found when one of the packaging materials was studied. In the early phase of the storage period, Pseudomonas spp. constituted the majority of the total viable counts, while after about 12 days, lactic acid bacteria dominated. At the end of the storage period, both Pseudomonas spp. and Enterobacteriaceae were present in high numbers. Significant differences in counts of Brochothrix thermosphacta were only obtained with initial presence of oxygen. The storage temperature had greater impact on microbial growth and off‐odour than the initial presence of oxygen in the packages. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Effect of packaging film on the quality of ‘Chaoyang’ honey peach fruit in modified atmosphere packages

The quality of honey peach fruit stored at 2°C in modified atmosphere packages was studied. Three different thickness low‐density polyethylene (LDPE) films were used as packaging films. Honey peach fruits of ‘chaoyang’ were packaged in LDPE bags 15, 25 and 40µm thick and control (air). The respiration rate, O₂ and CO₂ concentrations in the packages, flesh colour, total soluble solid (TSS), titratable acidity (TA), flesh firmness (FF) and membrane integrity of the fruits were monitored. Compared to the control, MAP treatments inhibited the climacteric peak, avoided the increase of flesh colour, decreased the development of softness and retarded the reduction of TTS, TA and membrane integrity. Significant differences in the quality of the fruits were found between the three packages and the control (p ≤ 0.05). After 20 days at 2°C within the LDPE25 bags, a steady‐state atmosphere of 5% CO₂ + 4% O₂ was reached. Honey peaches stored in these bags showed the best quality at the end of the storage.

Development of an active polylactic acid (PLA) packaging film by adding bleached bagasse carboxymethyl cellulose (CMCB) for mango storage life extension

This study aimed to determine the properties of a new active packaging film in order to extend the storage life of fresh mangoes by packing “Nam Dok Mai” mangoes (Mangifera indica Linn) with an active packaging film composed of biodegradable polymer and cellulose derivatives. A new packaging bag was produced primarily by blending polylactic acid (PLA) with spray‐dried carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) from bleached bagasse (CMC_B) at various concentrations (0%, 1%, 2%, and 4% w/w). The film thickness of the PLA and PLA/CMC_B bags was 75 μm. Unpacked mangoes were used as control before the packaged ones were stored at export conditions (13 ± 1°C and 90 ± 5% relative humidity [RH]) to evaluate the efficiency of the PLA/CMC_B film. Mango respiration and ethylene production rate were measured periodically in a packaging atmosphere as an indicator of ripeness. Changing fruit physio‐chemistry parameters were also studied, including weight loss, peel and flesh colour, firmness, total soluble solid (TSS), and total acidity (TA). The capacity of PLA/CMC_B packaging to absorb water vapour and prolong mango shelf life was demonstrated, and active packaging function by control of RH was also demonstrated. The absorption of PLA/CMC_B packaging was increased dramatically at 4% (w/w) CMC_B mixed with PLA. At this CMC_B concentration, the packaging film could extend the shelf life of mangoes for 42 days in export condition as well as decrease the physio‐chemistry parameters and respiratory rate, which were significantly enhanced when compared with those of control mangoes or unpacked mangoes (P ≤ 0.05), which had a shelf life of approximately 3 weeks.     

Improving the quality of fresh‐cut pineapples with ascorbic acid/sucrose pretreatment and modified atmosphere packaging

The effects of pretreatment and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on the quality of fresh‐cut pineapples stored at 4°C were evaluated for 7 days. The pretreatment was conducted by immersing the pineapple slices in a solution containing 0.25% ascorbic acid and 10% sucrose for 2min. MAP contained 4% oxygen, 10% carbon dioxide and 86% nitrogen. Both the pretreatment and MAP could reduce the respiration rate, ethylene production, textural and colour deteriorations, as well as the overall sensory deterioration in fresh‐cut pineapples. MAP could restrain the growth of microbes, but the pretreatment showed little effect. Fresh‐cut pineapples exhibited wet surface and off‐flavour after storage at 4°C for 3 days, while the pretreatment and MAP maintained the quality for up to 7 days.

Effect of different modified atmosphere packaging on microbial quality,oxidation and colour of a seasoned ground beef product (meatball)

The effects of different modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) on microbial quality, oxidation and colour of meatballs were investigated. Meatballs were prepared in our laboratory and packaged in vacuum or in different gases: combinations of O₂ (0, 2, 21%) and CO₂ (0, 33, 66, 100%) with N₂ as balance gas. Total microbial count, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances and colour were determined during storage at 3°C for 3 weeks. Total microbial count remained unchanged at around 6.3 LogCFU/g in vacuum and 100% CO₂ packages after 7 days, and slightly increased afterwards. The microbial count was higher in other packages and increased to 7.6 LogCFU/g after 21 days storage. Oxidation was inhibited by reduced O₂ and increased CO₂ in the packages. Packages with low O₂ maintained colour (a‐values) to a greater extent than the packages with higher O₂ levels. MAP containing 1–3%O₂ with 33%CO₂ inhibited microbial growth, oxidation and colour change in meatballs. Copyright © 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Effect of oxygen concentration on the shelf‐life of fresh pork packed in a modified atmosphere

Freshly slaughtered meat was packed in modified atmosphere packs (MAP) containing 5%, 15%, 25%, 35%, 45% and 55% O₂ along with 20% CO₂ in each package and stored for 8 days at 4°C. The samples were evaluated on the 8th day in terms of TVBN total volatile base nitrogen (TVBN) value, thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARs) value, colour acceptability score, overall acceptability score and total microbial count. The result indicated better effects for 45% and 55% O₂‐containing MAP; however, the TBARs value of 45% O₂ atmosphere was significantly lower, without having significant differences in other evaluation criteria, than in the 55% O₂ package; hence 45% O₂ and 20% CO₂ gas mixture were selected as the most appropriate gas composition for fresh pork packaging.

Effect of Different Packaging Methods on Quality and Shelf Life of Fresh Reindeer Meat

The impact of different packaging methods [vacuum, modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) (60% CO₂ and 40% N₂) and MAP + CO₂ emitter] on the quality of fresh reindeer meat (M. semimembranosus) stored at 4°C for 21 days was investigated. Colour and odour of the meat, drip loss, pH, microbial content, antioxidant capacity and cooking loss were measured. The MAP + CO₂ emitter resulted in prolonged microbial shelf life compared with vacuum and MAP without CO₂ emitter as lower level of total viable counts was detected after 13 and 17 days. Samples stored with CO₂ emitter also had lower drip loss. Samples stored in vacuum had significant lower L*‐value, higher a*‐value and lower intensity of freshness (odour and colour) compared with those stored in MAP and MAP with CO₂ emitter. However, MAP with a gas‐to‐product volume ratio of 1 : 1 seems to be too low in quality preserving. Increased partial pressure by adding a CO₂ emitter improved bacterial inhibition compared with vacuum and traditional MAP. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Carnauba Wax and Modified Atmosphere in Refrigerated Preservation of ‘Tahiti’ Acid Limes

Peel yellowing and loss of fruit mass reduce the useful life of acid limes and limit their commercialization. The goal of the present study was to prolong the post‐harvest preservation of acid limes using wax and packaging. Fruits were harvested, selected, disinfected, treated with fungicide, coated with Carnauba wax and placed in cardboard boxes wrapped with different plastic packaging. A fruit lot treated only with wax coating was used as a control. The fruits were stored at 10°C for 24 days followed by 6 days at 20°C. The gas atmosphere inside the packages was analysed during storage. The loss of mass, color index, titratable acidity, and total chlorophyll, ascorbic acid, soluble solids, acetaldehyde and ethanol concentrations of the fruits were measured. The combined use of wax coating and plastic Cryovac^® D‐955 (Cryovac Brasil Ltda, São Paulo, Brazil) and Vegetal Pack^® (Eletropolimeros do Brasil Ltda, São Paulo, Brazil) films resulted in better post‐harvest preservation of acid limes compared with only wax coating because the combined treatment maintained the green peel color following 30 days of storage in addition to resulting in lower loss of mass and maintaining chemical characteristics adequate for commercialization. The LDPE (low density polyethylene) and Xtend^® packaging (Stepac Brasil Ltda, São Paulo, Brazil), although they prevented peel degreening, did not result in an adequate atmosphere to maintain the quality of limes due to the accumulation of high concentrations of acetaldehyde and ethanol, especially for the LDPE packaging. LDPE drastically changed the atmosphere surrounding the fruit, resulting in loss of the characteristic pulp color, in addition to conferring an alcohol odor.

A Multi‐functional Biofilm Used as an Active Insert in Modified Atmosphere Packaging for Fresh Produce

We developed a multi‐functional agar‐based biofilm for fresh produce packaging by modulating its CO₂ absorption and water vapour absorption functions. The film was prepared from solutions containing agar as a matrix and a water vapour absorbent, glycerol as a plasticizer, and sodium carbonate (SC) and/or sodium glycinate (SG) as a CO₂ absorbent. The optical, mechanical, and CO₂ and water vapour absorption properties of SC, SG, and SC/SG films were investigated. Multi‐functional films tended to show poor mechanical properties, with a hard texture and an opaque and yellowish colour. The three films had different CO₂ absorption capacities and coefficients, with SC film showing the highest absorption, followed by SC/SG and SG films. The water absorption coefficients were much higher than those of CO₂, with the opposite dependence on the absorbent compound. The multi‐functional benefits of the developed film were shown by using the film for modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) of shiitake mushrooms as an insert label. A tailored MAP design for shiitake mushrooms was produced based on mass transfer mathematical models. The package attached with SC film label was capable of generating the desired internal atmosphere and thus showed the best quality preservation in terms of colour, firmness, flavour score, and bacterial growth after 5‐day storage. A tailored MAP system with our multi‐functional film can provide an optimal modified atmosphere for CO₂‐sensitive fresh commodities, preserve their quality, and extend their shelf life.

Use of Sodium Lactate and Modified Atmosphere Packaging for Extending the Shelf Life of Ready‐to‐Cook Fresh Meal

In this work, the combined effects of sodium lactate and modified atmosphere packaging (MAP) in extending the shelf life of a ready‐to‐cook fresh skewer, made up of raw pork chops and semi‐dried vegetable mix (i.e. zucchini, peppers and tomatoes), were investigated. In the first experimental step, a sodium lactate solution was used to dip pork chops at three different concentrations: 20, 40 and 60% w/w. The second part of the work was focused on the use of MAP. In particular, the following MAPs were tested: MA1 (50%O₂/30%CO₂/20%N₂), MA2 (70%O₂/30%CO₂), MA3 (30%O₂/70%CO₂) and MA4 (30%O₂/30%CO₂/40%N₂). Finally, the optimal concentration of sodium lactate and the best gas composition were combined. The samples were stored at 4 °C; their microbial and sensory qualities were monitored along the entire observation period. The results indicate that the shelf life of the investigated ready‐to‐cook meal can be extended by approximately 83%, if compared with the control skewer packaged in air. The best preservation strategy is the combination of dipping of meat pieces in 40% sodium lactate solution and packaging under MA1. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Comparison of reusable and single‐use plastic and paper shipping containers for distribution of fresh pineapples

This paper presents the effects of different packaging systems and fruit orientation on bruising and pre‐cooling time of pineapples during distribution. The package types studied were reusable plastic containers, single‐use paper corrugated containers and plastic foam containers (FCs). Simulated vibration tests were performed to evaluate the shipping containers on their protective performances. After the vibration tests, pineapples were evaluated for bruise damage and decay during storage for 5 days. Pineapple fleshes were also evaluated for bruise volume and changes in colour, firmness, total soluble solids content (TSS) and titratable acidity (TA) after storage of 5 days. Bruise damage was more intense as the storage time increased. Package types had significant effects (p ≤ 0.05) on bruise damage of pineapples. The corrugated containers showed the best protective performance for pineapples, while the FCs showed the worst. The corrugated containers with paperboard partitions showed the lowest damage levels as compared to other package types studied. Foam‐net cushion reduced bruise damage of pineapples. L values and firmness of pineapple flesh were highly associated with degree of bruising. The results suggested that slight bruising on the skin may signify severe bruising on the flesh and bruising accelerated decay in pineapples. Orientation did not show a significant effect (p ≤ 0.05) on bruising. The highest pre‐cooling rates were observed in the reusable plastic containers, while the slowest rates were observed in the single‐use paper containers. The results indicated that careful handling in the proper packaging with optimum cushion can minimize bruise damage and decay of pineapples after shipments.
